Answer:

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction between solid sulfur and oxygen gas:

[tex]2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)[/tex]

Explanation:

The unbalanced chemical equation :

[tex]S(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow SO_3(g)[/tex]

Step 1:When balancing a chemical equation first balance out the atoms of all the elements beside oxygen .

[tex]S(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow SO_3(g)[/tex]

Step 2: balance oxygen atom by writing 3 in front of oxygen molecule and 2 in front of sulfur trioxide.

[tex]S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)[/tex]

Step 3 : And finally write 2 in front of Sulfur.

[tex]2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)[/tex]

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction between solid sulfur and oxygen gas:

[tex]2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)[/tex]
